Roberto Heras Quotes
The time-trial will be very difficult, more than it seems. I think there may well be some huge time-gaps at the finish. But I'm not leaving the starting gate with the intention of losing the jersey. I'm going to defend it.

I will enter the final week with tranquility, confidence and, above all, humility... I have a lot of respect for my rivals and, just like we saw when I fell last week, the race is never over until you reach Madrid.

Today's stage was probably less difficult than that of yesterday. We let a breakaway go and the team has worked very well, and with a lot of discipline behind. No day is easy, but today our rivals probably paid a bit for the beating that they gave to themselves yesterday, because at this point of the race, it is difficult to recover a bit more. These two stages were the major obstacles that we still had, although there are still two more stages left, plus the time trial. Roberto continues to look very good to me, and he comes to the chrono with an advantage that will allow him to do it with more tranquility.

[Looking back on yesterday, the six bonus seconds Heras scored weren't intended to be a cushion for tomorrow.] We hadn't prepared anything ... But we were in front and Vicioso launched the sprint. They are only 6 seconds and I do not believe that they are very important for Sunday's time trial, but we had the opportunity and took advantage of it.
